Hismile – Wonka
Launched in December alongside the global box office hit film Wonka, Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products teamed up with global social media sensations Hismile to create its first collaboration—a Wonka-inspired chocolate toothpaste.
With more than 7.9 million followers on social media celebrating the launch, they sold over 200,000 units and amassed more than 500 million impressions in its first four weeks, making the Wonka-inspired chocolate toothpaste a global phenomenon in-store and online. Sold at more than 1,100 stores across Australia (Chemist Warehouse), the U.K. (Superdrug), and online at hismileteeth.com, the product innovatively allowed consumers to brush their teeth with a sugar-free chocolate toothpaste that was good for their smile. It quickly became the fastest selling toothpaste flavour in the range globally, and the #1 selling item across select retail stores in Australia during its launch month. This unique partnership perfectly paired product and license to clearly showcase the strength of licensing in the FMCG category.
Kmed – Sex Education
Netflix was set to release the final season of Sex Education and the challenge was to materialize the legacy of this coming-of-age self discovery story through products. The perfect match was to partner with Kmed, Brazil’s largest lubricant brand that could go beyond. KMed + Sex Education launched a collection to democratize sexual well-being with lubricants (ice and hot), condoms, and sex toys (bullet and penis ring vibrator). Under the concept of “Sex Education ends, your journey of discoveries continues with Kmed,” a massive integrated campaign was developed to bring sexual well-being to the public conversation and products were the main vehicle for this. KMed + Sex Education sold more than 600,000 products in over 20,000 drugstores in Brazil, taking sex toys to massive POS for the first time, and the campaign reached more than 16 million impressions. A milestone in licensing, breaking taboos and democratizing sexual well-being. The legacy of a great story through products.
